England are out...so who are Sportsmail's experts backing to win the World Cup now?

Roy Hodgson's men are heading home. Defeats in their first two games mean that, whatever happens against Costa Rica on Tuesday, England aren't going to win the World Cup.

That means it's time for everyone to pick their second team. Sportsmail's experts give their verdict on who to support in the knock-out stages.
